Had unprotected sex after MTP. Is there a chance of pregnancy?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have PCOS for the last two years. I got an MTP done in 14 weeks due to some complications. I got heavy menses two months after abortion which were very heavy. I got intimated soon after my periods for four days, but with condoms. I took UPT (prega news) the next month and was negative. I got heavy bleeding on that month which lasted for four days. I changed almost five to six pads. I heard about implantation bleeding so I took several UPTs but all were clear negative. I got bleeding on 30th July which lasted for two and a half days. And then spotting on fourth and fifth day. I was not sexually active after 16th May. Is there any chance of pregnancy? Or this change in pattern is due to MTP? Or can PCOS be the reason for this? I really need a satisfactory answer.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Stop worrying so much. According, to the information provided by you. You had your first period on 7th May and second on 13 June and third on 30th July. You were sexually active on 16 May and not after that. You did your last UPT on 23rd July. According to this information, you cannot be pregnant. Let me tell you some facts. Post-abortion, you can have irregular periods. UPT usually becomes positive on the first day of the missed period or within 14 days of intercourse, if you would have conceived then the test you did on 12 June would have come positive. If this would have been implantation bleeding, then UPT would have come positive by now. You had your last intercourse on 16th May even after two months of intercourse your pregnancy test was negative, then why are you thinking of implantation bleeding. So much of stress will definitely make your cycles irregular. Do start Folic acid prior to planning the next pregnancy and get some routine investigation also.
